Hi,

Unfortunately, your onboard graphics isn't powerfull enough...
If you really want 144Hz, you can try to set minimal seting and resolution.

 

[cigancik159]

And what about at least 120hz it is possible?

 

[rodolphe.viard]

It depends on the game.

Which version of the 850M do you have? (DDR3 or DDR4)
You can check it via Nvidia inspector.

I had a laptop with this GPU (DDR3) and it's really not that powerfull.
I had to use it on low at 900p to be able to get 30-50FPS in Dying Light for example.

Ive got gtx 850m gddr5 2 GB
I want to play csgo (110-150fps)
But friend told me that i can run 120hz on hdmi 1.4, can i?

 

[rodolphe.viard]

The hdmi 1.4 is able to throw 1080p 120 FPS.
So yes technically you can.
After that, it depends on your hardware.

I've seen benchmark, and according to them maxed out, the GTX 850m is able to render is at 70-80FPS so lowering some settings you could achieve 100-120FPS

Here you have someone having 130 FPS on Low :

Okay so you say that with hdmi 1.4 i can run 120hz and 1080p?
On csgo ive got around 110-150 sometimes more so i think that is okay.
Ive got gddr5 850m 2 GB
8gb ddr3
I7 4700hq

 

[rodolphe.viard]

Yes, that's what I said ;
"The hdmi 1.4 is able to throw 1080p 120 FPS."

Fps? Not Hz?

You would need a monitor that supports 120+ Hz over HDMI. The HDMI ports on the VG248QE and XL2411Z are limited to 60 Hz.

I would recommend the ViewSonic XG2401 or XG2402 if you want to run 120+ Hz over HDMI.

 

[rodolphe.viard]

FPS is equivalent to Hz when we talk about screen
A 120Hz screen is displaying 120 FPS maximum.

Okay, thank you guys, so i can run 120hz 1080p with hdmi 1.4b? On xg2401?

Okay, thank you guys, so i can run 120hz 1080p with hdmi 1.4b? On xg2401?

You can run up to 144 Hz at 1080p over HDMI 1.4 on the XG2401.

 

[cigancik159]

Okay, thank you so much i will buy xg2402 and i hope that everything will be okay.
